Damn, nobody spots my Stag down here in Hobart....it's nice and loud so you can hear it coming too!! Looks stock so the cops leave me alone! Why would a Volvo be making noises like that?? *lol*

post some pics up and a list of mods, I think we bought them about the same time.

Only mod so far is a full 3" exhaust (dump to tip) with a single 3.5" straight through muffler (if you can call it that!), and my Sony HU. Standard Stag rims, pearl white, twin sunroofs, electric everything, leather. Pretty much the slowest turbo Stag you can get!! *lol* Oh, and tinted glass all round, including sunroofs!

got blue LED'S in ya dash ? i had to turn right at the set off lights had to pop into riverside BP just as i pulled up you took off :iluvff: anyway kit currently getting fitted hopefully so pics up monday, overall not very happy with the quality of the kit etc but i suppose you get that unless it genuine :)

got the impul kit, i got the Ztune style bonnet on it currently, highly recommended that you get genuine items not overly happy with the kit atm, but you get what you pay for i suppose. if i can be stuffed ill be getting the genuine impul

had a gunmetal R35 GTR overtake me on the south arm highway this arvo. very nice i'd like to add and if by some chance the owner is reading this, i was the very excited looking bloke in the pintara wagon giving the thumbs up and mouthing "oh my f**king god"

Found a GTR yet Sam? I'm Leigh, I put an offer in on your Skyline but someone bought it before we could reach an agreement :)

I found a 32! Ended up going up to Sydney and buying it off a friend.

    • Totally equivalent. Stock often goes from the comp cover because that's where the actuator is also installed and the factory needs 2" of hose to make the connection - and it comes as a pre-assembled unit. They totally have a boost reference from somewhere between the turbo and the throttle(s). Oh, jeez. Just do it in M12 then. We don't actually care that much. I would expect any such AN converter fitting to rely on an o-ring or some other seal onto a flat surface under the flange of the hex**, because bolt threads are no intended to provide a pressure seal. unlike..... pipe threads. **which also requires a suitably flat and smooth surface on the turbo's boss to provide the seal.
    • I also used NP   That’s were it’s seems to be the best place to fit it? All schematic shows also that it’s should be referenced from the turbo housing. But idk, I do see high hp cars without any connection or anything to their turbos, so I really don’t know how they connect their things
    • I do have loctite 243 and 246 and a few more models. I could drill it now in place and make new threads for m12 and order an4 - m12 coupling and fit that to the turbo. Run a braided hose to the EBC which I could get a an4 to 1/8npt 
    • So M12 and sealant should be fine?    NPT ” because that’s what I had and what I could get atm. 
    • Wouldn’t touch par if they gave it to me. You need to ask how much power you’re looking to make and then add about 50% to it because that’s what you’ll end up making  The factory box says no more at about 350kw or so, the upgraded synchro boxes won’t handle much over 500kw for long and at that point you’re looking at an auto or dog engagement manual,  once you’ve gone dog engagement you may as well go sequential, they cost a little bit more but it’s worth it  also while you’re at it you should upgrade the transfer case with 10 friction plates
